Arsenal looked dead set to drop points from the third consecutive Premier League game against Aston Villa, but an own-goal from ex-Gunner Emiliano Martinez and a Martinelli strike into an empty net saw the North London side maintain their title hopes.
Reacting to the nervy match, relieved Arsenal fans took to Twitter to celebrate the vital win against Villa.
Here are some reactions gathered by Sporting Tribune

@wuyii_a I won’t lie, I wasn’t happy about the Jorginho signing, but the young lad has played good soccer since he came!!!
@FabrizioRomano Aston Villa-Arsenal explains why the Premier League is the best league in the world by far. What-a-game.
@AsiwajuLerry Jorginho has won the game for Arsenal with a goal I’ve never ever seen him attempted before at Chelsea

@the_Lawrenz I am unhappy Arsenal Won but I’m also happy Emi Martinez was disgraced
@PiersMorgan FT: 4-2. THAT’S how you win the League. THAT’S called heart, desire, character and will-to-win. We needed the fire and we got it. Brilliant, Arsenal.. absolutely bloody brilliant.
